Bentley manual for 76?

Does it exist? I don't see one at our host or Amazon.

Thanks, that's what I figured .

I've got a Haynes manual, and 101 Projects, how does this (VelocePress) compare? Is it worth the purchase price?

Cool, thanks...guess that means there's more similarities than differences, eh? Yes, I know, 2.7 v 3.0, Magnesium v Aluminum, etc, etc, ...

In addition to their workshop manual sets, Porsche published yearly service supplements for specific models. They're typically 50+ pages and very well illustrated. Search for the '76 version of your model car.

Many of the spec books are listed as No Longer Available by our host. Stoddard has them for around $33 each.
